OMG, Ellen is hosting the Oscars again!

Awards season is in full swing since the Oscar nominations were announced this morning, and there are a few women in lesbian, bi and gender bending roles who scored nominations. For her passion project Albert Nobbs, Glenn Close, who plays a woman living as a man to survive in 19th century Britain, earned a best actress nod.

Joining Mara and Close is Meryl Streep for her portrayal of Margaret Thatcher in out director Phyllida Lloyd’s The Iron Lady. The amazing Viola Davis scored a nod for The Help, as did Michelle Williams for My Week with Marilyn.

There is a moment in just about every workday when we come across something sexy, gratuitous and completely pointless that we wish we could post but don't under the auspices of there being nothing lesbian about it and often there being no redeeming value. Kate Bosworth, Christina Hendricks, Chloe Moretz, Emily Blunt and Keanu Reeves recreate the iconic scenes and characters from some of Mr. Scorsese’s most famed works.
